Description

Cam sliding type engine braking device
Technical Field
The invention relates to a device for realizing engine braking by utilizing a cam sliding mode, belongs to the technical field of engines, and particularly relates to the technical field of engine braking.
Background
Engine braking technology has been available and used for a long time, particularly in heavy duty diesel engines. For heavy trucks, when long-term braking is required, such as when driving on a long downhill slope, a conventional service brake device (brake) is prone to failure due to overheating during long-term use, and thus greatly threatens the driving safety. When a vehicle equipped with the engine braking device runs, a driver starts the engine braking device according to needs, the engine cuts off fuel supply at the moment, the clutch keeps a state of being connected with the power output end of the engine, the vehicle drags the engine to rotate by the kinetic energy of the vehicle, and the engine braking device temporarily converts the engine into an air compressor consuming power by changing the timing and the lift of an air valve, particularly an exhaust valve, so as to realize a braking function. The engine braking device can greatly relieve the working load of the service braking device, greatly improves the running safety of the vehicle, and becomes a necessary configuration for heavy trucks at present.
The engine brake can be divided into compression release type brake and air release type brake, the compression release type brake is that in the compression stroke, when the piston is close to the compression top dead center, the exhaust valve is opened to release the compressed air entering the cylinder, and then the exhaust valve is closed when the piston enters the power stroke after passing through the top dead center. Bleeder brakes release compressed air by holding the exhaust valve slightly open during the non-exhaust stroke or only during the compression stroke of the engine, and generally have higher braking power and are applied more often than bleeder brakes.
At present, the engine braking device is mainly applied to a four-stroke heavy-duty diesel engine, and compression release type engine braking devices are more, in a working cycle (air inlet-compression-work-exhaust) of the four-stroke engine, the piston moves upwards once in each of the compression stroke and the exhaust stroke, theoretically, when the engine is converted into a braking state to work, the compression and exhaust strokes are both released to maximize the braking power, however, most of the compression-release engine brake devices that have been used so far cannot change the timing and lift of the exhaust valve for normal engine operation in the exhaust stroke, and therefore, the compression release of the air entering the cylinder during the compression stroke can only be achieved during one working cycle, resulting in a single braking, while a second braking is not possible during the exhaust stroke. In the technology disclosed at present, the brake is generated by performing compression release on compression and exhaust strokes, a plurality of rocker arms or a complex rocker arm or valve bridge structure is often needed, the structure is complex, the cost is high, and the working reliability is insufficient.

And a braking spiral groove and a return spiral groove are also processed adjacent to the cam, the rotation directions of the two spiral grooves are opposite, and the spiral parts of the two spiral grooves are finally connected with the middle positioning groove. The inner hole of the air inlet cam is also a spline hole matched with the spline shaft, so that all cams of a plurality of cylinders can be assembled on the spline shaft, and meanwhile, the air inlet cam is provided with a positioning hole and is fixed on the spline shaft through a positioning pin, so that the axial movement of the air inlet cam is avoided.

When the engine needs to be converted into an engine braking working state, the electromagnetic valve is electrified, the electromagnetic valve driving shaft pulls the pull rod, the pull rod applies acting force to the control rod through the pull rod spring, the control rod presses down the braking plunger at the moment, the return plunger bounces, the lower end of the braking plunger enters the spiral part of the braking spiral groove along with the rotation of the cam, the cam moves to one side under the action of the braking spiral groove, the lower end of the braking plunger finally enters the middle positioning groove to position the axial position of the braking and exhaust cam, and at the moment, the exhaust rocker roller is in contact with the braking cam, and the exhaust rocker opens and closes the exhaust valve according to the valve timing and lift in the engine braking.

When the engine needs to be switched to the engine braking operation state, as shown in fig. 9, the electromagnetic valve 78 is energized to open the oil inlet passage 83, the oil drain passage 84 is closed, the engine lubricating oil with a certain pressure enters the volume below the return plunger 74 through the oil inlet passage 83 and enters the volume above the brake plunger 72 through the check valve, since the pre-load of the brake plunger spring 73 is significantly greater than the pre-load of the return plunger spring 75, upon receiving the lubricating oil pressure, the return plunger 74 is first raised and then the brake plunger 72 is depressed, as described above in the first embodiment, under the action of the spiral groove on the braking and exhaust cam 22, the braking and exhaust cam 22 will move to one side, making the roller of the exhaust rocker arm 11 contact with the braking cam 32, and causes the exhaust rocker arm 11 to open and close the exhaust valve in accordance with the cam lift curve of the engine braking state. When the engine needs to exit from the braking operation state and return to the normal operation state, the electromagnetic valve 78 is powered off, the oil inlet channel 83 is closed, the oil drain channel 84 is opened, at this time, the lubricating oil in the two plunger holes leaks through the oil drain channel 84 under the action of the two plunger springs, and because the pretightening force of the braking plunger spring 73 is obviously greater than the pretightening force of the return plunger spring 75, the lubricating oil above the braking plunger 72 is firstly drained and bounced by the braking plunger spring 73, then the lubricating oil below the return plunger 74 is drained and pressed down by the return plunger spring, the braking and exhaust cam 22 is moved to the other side in the same manner as the first embodiment, so that the roller on the exhaust rocker arm 11 is in contact with the exhaust cam 31, and the engine returns to the normal operation.
In the second embodiment of the present invention, the solenoid valve 78 controls the opening and closing of the oil inlet passage 83 and the oil drain passage 84 on the controller body 71 of at least one cylinder, and for a multi-cylinder engine, the solenoid valve 78 can control the opening and closing of the oil inlet passage 83 and the oil drain passage 84 on the controller body 71 of a plurality of cylinders up to all cylinders, so as to achieve the lowest cost. In the embodiment, the pretightening force of the brake plunger spring 73 is set to be obviously greater than the pretightening force of the return plunger spring 75, so that the brake plunger 72 and the return plunger 74 can be pressed down and bounced in sequence when the engine enters the braking state and exits the braking state of the engine, the two plungers cannot be pressed down or bounced simultaneously, the interference is avoided, and the working reliability of the device is ensured.
